Alefki Apartments, KavosLocated close to the main Kavos nightlife and only a few minutes walk from the beach, the Alefki Apartments offer twin bedded studios for up to 4 people all with air conditioning, private bathrooms, a kitchenette and a balcony or patio. Surrounded by well maintained gardens, in a quiet area of Kavos, patrons of themore Afleki Apartments can make use of a swimming pool and pool bar available at the neighbouring accommodation.

Well went to Kavos last month (August 2007) and stayed at the Alefki Apartments booked with Olympic and after reading horrible reviews we weren't sure if the apartment would be up to standards but we arrived and although the kitchen is small we wasn't planning on eating in it - we mainly just used the fridge to store water and drinks. However we had a 2 bedroom apartment and our bathroom was VERY small so I would recommend booking a studio if you go, as the bathrooms in them were much better!! Our apartment was literally next to the road so on the one night I stayed in it was extremley noisy listening to drunk people walking back to their hotels but that is what you get when you come to Kavos so wasnt bothered!! Overall will definitely be going back to Kavos next year and most likely be staying at the Alefki as it's 5 mins away from everything!!

Rubbish kitchen but you won't be eating there. Crappy noise but you'll want to sleep so bad it won't matter, and bring a fan, you'll need it at night, the temp in the summer never drops below 25şC even at 5am in the morning, oh yeah and drink loads a water and coke not just beer.

Went there in August 2007, had the best holiday ever, there was 7 of us and it was amazing. 30 second walk from first bar. George and Spiro are ledgends they own lush and twins bar, they are so cool. Keith, Dan ans Chris were cool too. The rooms aren't great but out of the way of all the bars so you don't get music all night cause lush and twins shut at 1 so it's silent up this end. Best place to eat I would say is Desparados! Anyway if you go to Corfu I wouldn't recommend Alefki Apartments but they are ok apart from the heat. It's so hot take fans trust me! Kostas and George at the bar at the pool, what legends!

The Alefki Apartments are reasonable...we read some horrific reviews and they are no way near as bad as what we expected them to be. Having said that, they aren't exactly great but neither are they expensive. You get what you pay for. We had a room by the road which was very, VERY noisy in the morning but we had quite a lot of room in the apartments, except for the shower room which was tiny and rather bad. The kitchen is very basic as well, but overall we didn't mind the Alefki Apartments and spent many an hour sitting on our balcony drinking crates of beer and chatting to randomers strolling past.
However, the cleaners are terrible! One very drunken night I was let into a neighbours apartment and somehow (accidentally) broke their bed. I don't remember any of this. Anyway, all that was broken was a plank of wood which we could have repaired ourselves, but they charged me €110 for it, and for that, we left the apartment in a bit of a state when we left.

Me and my mate went to Kavos from September 2nd to 9th and had a real laugh. Only 2 of us but that didn't stop plenty of fun being had.
The Alefki was a real good hotel up at the quiet end of the strip, cleaned regularly etc. 1 gripe is that you are not allowed to take your own food and drink to the pool. Hmm... but that was it for the moaning.
Nightlife quality, not as classy as Laganas but more varied. Buzz has 10 euros all you can drink for an hour. The DJ in Scorers is a legend and the indie room in Rolling Stone was top class. Avoid Sexy bastewards what a rip off but pretty much all the bars wa good.
Tex Mex is a really nice restaurant if you want a decent meal.
Overall despite the smell it was a great week. All those of you that we met at the Alefki you were all top class, the Welsh boys and the cuties above us especially.

My accomodation a 3, really, Alefki Apartments is a gamble. If you get the rooms near the pool you're OK, but if you get the apartments facing the road then pure noise all night, motorbikes driving past that seriously sound like aeroplanes wake you up through the night and it's so hard to get back asleep due to the heat. The rooms are tiny! I mean TINY, the rooms in Greece are small but everyone that saw out room agreed that ours was the smallest. We couldn't even unpack our bags on the floor! The tap sometimes let out brown water and the owners tried to charge us for every little fault in the room, i.e. one ring missing from the shower curtain cost 10 euros! The best advice is to get a mosquito plug for 5 euros on your first day; it is well worth it. Tour Operator: Olympic

Wasnt too keen stayin at the Alefki apartments, the pool bar and the pool was nice but didnt think the rooms were,they were small and basic but i thinks that what 2 expect in Greece. the hotel is at the end of the strip so its not far 2 walk, i dont think the rooms in the Alefki have been decorated since the 70's! our room was the ground floor by the road so u heard evry moped and quad bike go past, rather annoying!

Gutted I couldn't put a rating of -100 because this really was swalla!! Absolute hell hole!! We got there bathroom was filthy!! Sheets on bed were dirty and rooms were swarming with insects!! Then heat like you have never felt as you stepped into the sweat box!! I believe my initial comment was that I have seen better facilities in prisons!!
The shower didn't work properly and it was that dirty you were forced to wear flip-flops around apartment and even in shower!! As your hand held shower dripped out, the bathroom would flood with dirty water from some random hole which the water came back up through. The towels consisted of 1 hand towel each with random grecko names on them, so I think these may have been picked up from around the pool area.
Every other day the horrible cleaners would proceed to wake you by hammering at the door shrieking at you in Greek. The one morning I was awoken by my friend asking me to help her as the cleaner had been screaming abuse in her face for over half an hour. She was waving a plastic chair round and trying to take money from us. She was trying to accuse us of stealing some knaff plastic chair and take 10 Euros from us for doing so. After a tirade of abuse she proceeded to find the chair on a neighborâ€™s balcony and calmly put it back on ours without so much as an apology. Needless to say no cleaning was done that day!! Our Reps answer to this was 'These Greeks love money more then life itself'! Helpful wasn't he!!
We were also accused of stealing cups and the hand towels we had been provided with. They took our hand towels mid week and they were never to be seen again.
The cleaning was basically none existent I believe they just came in to piss us off then left. There were still crisps and crap under the bed from the last residents!
The nail in the coffin was on our last day we were charged 30 Euros to keep our swalla until 7pm as our transfer was not until 10.30pm. We didnâ€™t have a choice as there was no reception and all communication was done through the pool bar.
We were woken at 10am having had 1 hour sleep and told we needed to vacate immediately!! We were being evicted to our friendâ€™s room over the other side of the complex, regardless of the fact we had paid to keep our larger room on. They stood while we packed our things half of which we had to leave as they kept shouting at us to hurry up! So there we are 7 people in a 2 person room 6.50pm. Five greckos arrive in force to evict us from yet another room! I was trying to shower but they refused to leave. As I was frantically trying to change in the corner while my friends fought them off. Some old grecko stuck his head around the corner despite my friends telling them I was undressed! He then went back to his other male friend and started laughing!! I wasn't amused. In the end we left the apartment half naked and were forced to finish our packing and dressing in the street! I think to old perv was the owner!! Real nice bunch between the cleaners and owners!!
So the up side was we had nice neighbors!! (Not the thieves the other ones), and your close to the strip. Downside was basically everything else!! If you have booked my advice would be to cancel while you can!!
